"A long-haired guinea pig and a naked mole rat may seem like unlikely friends, but Otis and Peanut perfectly support one another's quirks and foibles. These three delightful stories explore themes like friendship, grief, fear of change, and belonging. In "The Haircut," Otis worries about getting a haircut because he's afraid he'll look so different he'll no longer be himself. In "The Swing," Peanut helps Otis come to terms with missing a beloved friend. And in "The House," Otis struggles to make his house a home with Peanut's help. These two endearing characters gently explore deep truths about life and human nature, while helping each other figure out their world."-- Provided by publisher.
